About:

My academic background and professional interest don't go well with each other. I did M.Sc. with Biochemistry in 1970 but then slowly shifted to physics and astronomy education in 1974 and I am still happily and actively continuing with it. Early this week, I contributed a paper on the problems in learning Bohr's model of hydrogen atom in the First International Conference of Education in Chemistry, held in HBCSE, Mumbai, MH, India. The gist of that paper can be found in my essay in memory of Prof. Abdus Salam, http://old.iupac.org/publications/cei/vol2/pdfs/0201x0026.pdf
